Summary

Good news - John's back! Although he's been suffering with mouth ulcers, but don't worry he doesn't go on about it. Trauma for Elis this week too after he fell victim to a bag thief in central London. Our two heroes unsuccessfully chased the perps down Regent Street, so this week they've been asking for your tales of catching criminals and it turns out there are many brave vigilantes out there. Plus there's the usual Winner Plays On, Led Zeppelin are up for debate in Sacred Cow, and some relationship troubles are broached in Textual Healing. All this before John launches his campaign for office by asking you to keep live music alive. Join the boys live next Sunday from 10am til 1pm on Xfm.

Oh. Yeah, so. Well, I mean, we asked for your cures and treatments live, but if you have one, do get in contact of the show, because John is really struggling. But he doesn't go on about it. He doesn't whinge. He's not one of those people who says he's got man flu. He just gets on with a job in handy. You're like, you know that is that famous picture picture of England centreback's Harry Butcher in a World Cup qualifying, he's covered in blood and he carried on playing, head in the ball a lot as well. I mean, you're the broadcasting equivalent, I think.

1:12.1

Robbins gets a bit upset because my questions were too deep for him.

1:16.3

I mean, there were two questions I could not possibly have got.

1:22.3

But which ones?

1:23.3

Well, we'll let the listeners decide.

1:25.0

All right. Okay, fair enough.
